In  presenting  this  work  to  the  public,  we  wish  to  acknowledge  the 
painstaking,  enthusiastic,  and  able  efforts  of  Assistant  Adjutant  General,  Col. 
George  H.  Turner,  who,  by  long  and  most  honorable  military  service,  was 
especially  fitted  for  the  work  of  compiling  this  volume.  To  him  is  due  our 
unbounded  gratitude,  and  the  full  honor  of  these  carefully  prepared  records.

INTRODUCTORY. 


The  compilation  of  the  military  history  of  each  soldier  of  the  Civil  War 
(who  was  a  resident  of  the  State  of  Michigan  at  the  time  he  enlisted),  for 
publication  and  distribution  has  been  the  subject  of  controversy  for  years.  The 
magnitude  of  such  a  work,  together  with  the  cost  of  publication,  the  exhaustive 
research  required  and  the  amount  of  clerical  services  necessary  in  its  compil 
ation,  have  been  large  factors  in  postponing,  from  time  to  time,  the  consideration 
of  the  subject. 

To  comply  as  far  as  possible  with  this  demand  an  admirable  history  was 
prepared  by  Adjutant  General  John  Robertson,  a  few  years  ago,  entitled  "  Mich 
igan  in  the  War,"  and  gratuitously  distributed  through  the  generosity  of  the 
state  to  the  surviving  soldiers  of  the  war  and  to  the  families  of  those  who 
perished.  But  this  work  was  general  in  character,  referring  mostly  to  regimental 
organizations,  and  contained  the  military  biography  of  commissioned  officers  only. 

The  enlisted  men  of  the  army  who  endured  the  hardships  and  suffered 
the  perils  of  war  considered  it  due  themselves  and  their  children  that  their 
names  should  appear  of  record  in  the  archives  of  their  country  and  their  services 
noted,  that  future  generations  might  know  the  honorable  part  their  ancestors 
bore  in  the  memorable  conflict  known  as  the  Civil  War.  Such  a  record  will 
ever  be  a  source  of  patriotic  pride  to  the  soldier  who  did  his  duty  whether  he 
served  in  the  ranks  or  in  command  of  divisions  or  corps,  and  an  inspiration  to 
the  youth  of  the  country  who  must  in  the  future  assume  the  civic  and  military 
responsibilities  of  this  grand  republic. 

At  the  annual  encampment  of  the  Grand  Army  of  the  Republic,  Depart 
ment  of  Michigan,  held  at  Pontiac,  June  n  and  12,  1902,  the  following  resolution 
was  passed  unanimously: 

"  Resolved :  That  the  Department  of  Michigan,  Grand  Army  of  the 
Republic,  in  encampment  assembled,  hereby  request  of  the  legislature  and  the 
Governor  of  Michigan  that  immediate  provision  be  made  for  the  publication 
of  the  record  of  the  officers  and  enlisted  men  who  served  from  this  state  during 
the  Civil  War  in  form  substantially  the  same  as  those  published  by  other 
states,  notably  New  Hampshire,  Connecticut  and  Ohio." 

The  Department  Commander  appointed  a  committee  on  legislation  con 
sisting  of  C.  E.  Foote,  Kalamazoo,  Col.  Fred  Schneider,  Lansing,  and  Alfred 
Milnes,  Coldwater.  This  committee  drafted  the  following  bill,  which  was  passed 

M193494 


iv  INTRODUCTORY 


by  both  houses  of  the  legislature  in  the  session  of  1903,  and  was  promptly  signed 
by  Governor  Bliss. 

The  act  is  known  as  Act  147,  Public  Acts  of  1003. 

The  first  three  sections  of  the  Act  are  as  follows,  and  the  concluding 
sections  refer  to  provisions  of  contracting  for  publication  and  auditing  accounts. 

The   People  of  the    State  of  Michigan  enact: 

Section  1.  The  Adjutant  General  shall,  as  soon  as  practicable  after  the  passage  of  this 
act,  prepare  for  publication  an  alphabetical  regimental  history  of  all  soldiers  and  sailors  who 
enlisted  from  and  were  credited  to  this  state  during  the  war  of  the  rebellion.  Such  history 
shall  contain  the  name,  residence,  date  of  enlistment,  date  of  muster  in,  rank,  promotion, 
wounds  received,  capture  and  imprisonment  by  the  enemy,  date  of  discharge,  muster  out  or 
death,  and  such  information  as  can  be  obtained  from  the  records  of  this  state,  the  war,  navy 
and  other  departments  of  the  Federal  Government,  or  other  authentic  sources,  as  will  correct 
or  complete  the  records,  making  as  far  as  practicable  a  complete  and  concise  military  history 
of  each  soldier  or  sailor  so  serving;  prefacing  each  volume  of  such  records  appropriately, 
with  a  concise  general  history  of  the  organization  therein  named.  He  shall  direct  the  prepara 
tion  and  compilation  of  such  records  for  publication  in  forty-three,  forty-four,  forty-five,  or 
forty-six  volumes,  assigning  as  far  as  practicable  one  volume  to  each  of  the  following  organi 
zations  and  groups  of  organizations,  viz.:  One  volume  to  each  regimental  infantry  organiza 
tion  and  reorganization,  numbered  from  First  to  Thirtieth  regiment;  one  volume  each  to 
First  regiment  of  Michigan  Engineers  and  Mechanics,  First  regiment  Michigan  Sharpshooters, 
and  First  regiment  Michigan  colored  troops;  one  volume  to  the  fourteen  Michigan  Batteries 
of  Light  Artillery;  one  volume  to  Gen.  George  A.  Custer's  Cavalry  Brigade,  consisting  of 
the  First,  Fifth,  Sixth  and  Seventh  regiments  of  Michigan  cavalry;  one  volume  to  each  of 
the  Second,  Third,  Fourth,  Eighth,  Ninth,  Tenth  and  Eleventh  Michigan  cavalry  regiments; 
and  one  volume  to  contain  all  other  miscellaneous  organizations  and  detachments  enlisted  in 
this  state  and  serving  in  Michigan  and  other  state  organizations;  and  one  volume  to  contain 
a  general  alphabetical  index  of  all  names  mentioned  in  the  different  volumes  constituting 
the  entire  edition,  showing  in  what  organization  or  volume  each  name  in  the  index  may  be 
found,  for  the  convenient  reference  of  the  public  in  library  sets,  which  index  volume  is  here 
with  limited  to  two  hundred  copies.  For  this  purpose  the  Adjutant  General  is  authorized 
to  employ  such  extra  clerical  assistance  and  procure  such  blanks  and  stationery  as  may  be 
necessary  in  the  preparation,  compilation,  comparing  and  proof  reading,  necessary  to  secure 
historical  and  typographical  accuracy. 

Section  2.  The  distribution  of  said  volumes  when  published  shall  be  made  under 
the  supervision  of  the  Adjutant  General,  in  the  same  general  manner  now  adopted  for  the 
distribution  of  "  Michigan  in  the  War,"  under  section  three,  act  two  hundred  forty-eight, 
public  acts  of  eighteen  hundred  eighty-seven.  One  regimental  volume  to  the  applicant  of  th 
organization  in  which  he  served  as  follows:  Any  person  who  served  in  any  Michigan  regi 
ment,  battery,  company  or  detachment  during  the  Civil  War,  and  has  been  honorably  dis 
charged,  or  any  person  who  served  in  any  regiment,  battery  or  company  from  any  other 
state,  or  in  the  regular  army,  or  in  the  navy,  properly  accredited  to  the  State  of  Michigan, 
and  has  been  honorably  discharged,  or  if  such  person  be  dead,  then  his  widow  if  living,  or 
if  she  be  dead,  then  his  father  if  living,  if  he  be  dead,  then  the  mother  of  any  such  person, 
or  if  she  be  dead,  then  to  his  eldest  child,  if  any  there  be;  and  any  such  person  who  is  still 
in  the  service,  shall  be  entitled  to  receive  one  copy  of  said  work,  on  application  and  identifica 
tion  to  the  Adjutant  General,  and  if  the  application  for  such  copy  be  not  made  in  person  by 


INTRODUCTORY 


depositing  with  the  Adjutant  General  necessary  postage  to  cover  the  expense  of  sending  such 
book.  Also  complete  sets  to  adjutants  general  of  other  states,  and  to  state  and  United  States 
public  libraries  upon  application,  and  to  such  other  libraries  in  this  state  as  the  Governor 
may  approve,  and  may  be  purchased  by  any  other  persons  who  may  apply  at  cost  of  publication. 
Section  3.  So  soon  as  the  work  of  preparation  and  compilation  of  the  historical  records 
herein  provided  for  shall  have  progressed  sufficiently  near  completion  to  enable  printers  and 
binders  to  make  accurate  estimates  of  the  cost  of  publication,  the  Adjutant  General  shall 
serve  a  written  notification  of  that  fact  on  the  Board  of  State  Auditors;  upon  such  notifica 
tion,  at  the  earliest  practicable  moment,  the  Board  of  State  Auditors  is  hereby  directed  to 
solicit  sealed  bids  for  the  publication,  printing  and  binding  of  forty-five  thousand  volumes  of 
"  A  Record  of  Michigan  Soldiers  and  Sailors  in  the  War  of  the  Rebellion,  Eighteen  Hundred 
Sixty-one  to  Eighteen  Hundred  Sixty-Five,"  and  give  public  notice  of  the  time  and  place 
for  receiving  such  bids  and  the  requirements  of  the  contract  in  acordance  with  this  act  by 
publishing  the  same  in  such  paper  or  papers,  and  for  such  a  period  as  will  in  the  judgment 
of  the  board  bring  the  subject  to  the  attention  of  the  several  prominent  publishing  houses  in 
this  state:  Provided,  That  the  cost  of  such  work  complete  shall  not  exceed  fourteen  thousand 
dollars  for  the  printing,  binding  and  delivery  of  the  entire  edition  herein  provided  for;  and 
the  standard  of  excellence  in  quality  of  material,  style  of  binding,  typography  and  style  of 
printing  shall  be  equal  to  that  used  by  the  state  of  Massachusetts  in  its  recent  publication  of 
"  Massachusetts'  Soldiers  and  Sailors  of  the  Revolutionary  War,"  copies  of  which  are  now 
on  file  in  the  Adjutant  General's  office  of  this  state:  Provided,  further,  That  the  apportion 
ment  of  the  copies  of  the  different  regimental  volumes  of  the  edition  of  forty-five  thousand 
volumes  herein  provided  for,  shall  be  in  the  same  relative  proportion  as  the  total  enrollment 
of  the  organizations  represented  in  any  single  volume,  bears  to  the  total  enrollment  of  the 
entire  edition  as  provided  for  in  this  act;  for  which  purpose  the  Adjutant  General  shall 
direct  the  preparation  of,  and  furnish  the  Board  of  State  Auditors  with  a  comprehensive  table 
of  data,  showing  the  total  enrollment  of  the  organization,  and  the  total  number  of  printed 
pages  intended  for  each  volume,  and  the  apportionment  of  the  total  number  of  copies  to  each 
of  such  volumes,  for  the  guidance  of  bidders  for  the  contract  of  publishing  such  work. 

Immediately  upon  the  approval  of  the  act  by  the  Governor,  the  Adjutant 
General  commenced  active  preparations  to  compile  the  work  as  provided  for  in 
the  bill.  No  state  has  been  more  generous  than  Michigan  in  trying  to  secure 
full  and  complete  historical  military  data  of  her  sons,  who  patriotically  volun 
teered  to  defend  the  integrity  of  their  country,  and  probably  the  records  in  the 
military  department  are  as  acurate  and  complete  as  any  like  records  of  any 
state  in  the  Union.  Yet  with  all  the  care  and  research  that  has  been  made, 
there  are  individual  histories  that  are  deficient  in  some  particulars,  owing  to 
the  fact  that  the  returns  from  which  they  were  copied  were  written  in  the  field 
during  active  and  protracted  campaigns,  when  great  battles  were  fought,  and 
the  movement  of  troops  continued  incessantly  night  and  day,  circumstances 
incompatible  with  accuracy,  completeness  and  legibility,  and  by  officers  who 
succeeded  suddenly  in  command  by  the  death  of  their  predecessors.  The 
greater  number  who  possessed  the  information  desired  have  been  removed  by 
death,  and  their  silent  lips  can  never  complete  the  unwritten  history  of  their 
comrades. 


vi  INTRODUCTORY 


It  was  sometimes  impossible  in  the  stirring  times  of  war  for  command 
ing  officers  to  give  authentic  and  final  history  of  men  who  disappeared  in  a 
great  battle,  as  in  many  cases  the  bodies  of  the  dead  could  not  be  found,  and  if 
possession  of  the  field  was  yielded  to  the  enemy  the  fate  of  those  who  were 
made  prisoners  of  war  could  only,  if  ever,  be  learned  through  unreliable  Con 
federate  sources. 

For  such  heroes  who  died  for  their  country  and  who  sleep  in  nameless 
graves  their  epitaph  is  inscribed  in  this  history  as  "  Missing  in  action."  A  more 
honorable  or  heroic  epitaph  could  not  be  penned.  Thousands  of  the  Union  dead 
have  been  removed  by  the  Government  from  the  field  where  they  fell,  and  their 
bodies  have  been  placed  in  national  cemeteries,  beautified  and  adorned,  as  the 
mausoleum  of  the  nation's  defenders  with  appropriate  monuments  at  their  rest 
ing  places. 

In  order  to  complete  some  of  the  records  of  the  Adjutant  General's 
Office,  which  is  the  custodian  of  all  the  field  returns  of  the  Civil  War,  Governor 
Bliss  made  a  request  of  the  Secretary  of  War,  seconded  by  Senators  Burrows 
and  Alger,  asking  that  the  incomplete,  individual  records  of  this  office  be  com 
pleted,  upon  presentation  by  the  Adjutant  General,  provided  the  War  Depart 
ment  was  in  possession  of  the  facts  desired.  For  reasons  which  seemed  sufficient 
to  the  Secretary  of  War,  the  request  was  denied. 

To  supplement  the  records  of  this  office  so  as  to  make  each  individual 
history  complete  as  far  as  possible,  blanks  were  prepared  and  sent  to  all  the 
Grand  Army  Posts  of  the  state,  with  the  request  that  the  names  of  all  Michigan 
soldiers  in  the  Post  and  vicinity  be  returned  to  the  Adjutant  General  stating  the 
residence,  if  living,  and,  if  dead,  the  date  of  death  and  place  of  burial. 

Three  hundred  out  of  the  three  hundred  and  sixty  Posts  of  the  state 
responded,  and  the  data  gathered  from  these  reports  have  been  added  to  the 
official  history  shown  by  the  records  of  this  office.  Without  doubt  there  are 
some  inaccuracies  in  these  reports,  but  the  majority  of  them  are  correct  and 
will  enable  many  ex-soldiers  to  locate  their  comrades,  if  living,  and  to  know 
their  resting  places  if  dead. 

A  request  was  also  made  of  each  superintendent  of  the  eighty  national 
cemeteries  to  forward  to  the  Adjutant  General  the  names  of  all  Michigan 
soldiers  buried  in  such  cemeteries.  A  gratifying  response  was  received,  and 
these  reports  have  been  carefully  compiled  and  added  to  the  history  of  the 
soldier.  These  reports  of  the  superintendents  of  national  cemeteries  tell  a 
mournful  story.  The  superintendent  of  the  National  Cemetery  at  Andersonville, 
Ga.,  reports  the  names  of  six  hundred  and  forty-seven  Michigan  soldiers  buried 
there,  victims  of  Andersonville  prison.  There  is  scarcely  a  national  ceme 
tery  in  the  United  States  that  does  not  contain  the  bodies  of  Michigan  soldiers, 
and  a  number  of  them  as  many  as  the  cemetery  at  Andersonville,  Ga. 


INTRODUCTORY  vii 


Near  the  close  of  the  war  there  were  many  recruits  at  depots  awaiting 
transportation  to  join  regiments  at  the  front,  but  when  it  was  found  their 
services  would  not  be  needed,  many  returned  home  without  the  formality  of 
a  muster  out,  and  their  final  disposition  was  incomplete,  and  in  many  such 
cases  shows  "no  further  record." 

In  the  compilation  of  this  work  no  pains  have  been  spared  and  ho 
research  of  the  almost  numberless  field  returns  made  forty  years  ago,  has 
seemed  too  arduous  to  make  the  soldiers  record  absolutely  complete  if  there 
were  material  existing  to  make  this  possible.  That  inaccuracies  will  appear  is 
unavoidable  from  the  nature  of  the  work.  The  inaccuracies  are  not  the  result 
of  careless  clerical  work  in  the  Adjutant  General's  office,  but  are  due  to  the 
hasty  compilation  of  returns  in  the  field,  where  names  were  misspelled  and 
where  the  name  of  a  soldier  is  spelled  differently  in  the  muster-in  and  muster- 
out  rolls. 

In  cases  where  the  name  could  not  be  verified  as  the  correct  one  both 
are  published.  When  inaccuracies  appear  in  the  record  if  the  soldier  will  send 
his  discharge  papers  to  the  Adjutant  General,  the  corrections  will  be  made  in 
the  official  records  of  the  office  and  the  discharge  papers  promptly  returned.  It 
scarcely  occurred  to  the  officers  who  made  their  official  returns  to  the  different 
departments  that  forty  years  after  the  conflict,  an  individual  history  of  each 
soldier  who  participated  would  be  written.  Had  such  been  known  then,  the 
meagre  and  scant  accounts  of  skirmishes,  battles  and  sieges — many  of  them 
destined  to  be  of  world-wide  fame — would  have  been  extended  and  written 
out  fully  giving  a  comprehensive  history  of  individuals,  companies  and  regi 
ments,  a  history  that  would  be  a  priceless  heritage  today  and  to  future  genera 
tions. 

The  hardships  of  a  campaign,  the  duties  exacted  night  and  day,  the 
constant  attention  to  matters  of  vital  importance,  are  not  conducive  to  literary 
efforts  of  biography  or  general  history.  It  is  pathetic  to  know  that  thousands 
upon  thousands  of  Union  soldiers  who  participated  in  many  of  the  most  des 
perate  battles  of  the  Civil  War,  have  no  records  of  such  battles  to  their  credit  in 
the  official  reports.  A  limited  number  were  fortunate  enough  to  have  their 
names  recorded  by  their  officers  as  participating  in  such  engagements. 

Whenever  the  official  records  have  mentioned  the  battles  in  which  the 
soldier  fought,  or  wounds  that  he  received,  or  promotions  made,  or  any  gallant 
and  meritorious  service,  such  record  has  been  carefully  noted  and  attached  to 
the  soldier's  history.  At  the  commencement  of  the  work  it  was  found  that 
many  soldiers  saw  service  in  more  than  one  regiment,  and  as  the  appropriation 
contemplated  but  one  volume  to  each  man,  the  entire  history  of  the  soldier  has 
been  compiled  under  his  name  and  placed  in  the  volume  where  he  served 
longest.  The  primary  object  of  the  whole  work  has  been  to  group  the  comrades 


viii  INTRODUCTORY 


who  served  in  the  same  regiment,  with  names  arranged  in  alphabetical  order, 
and  present  him  with  the  volume  containing  his  own  military  history  and  the 
history  of  those  with  whom  he  served. 

The  soldiers  who  enlisted  for  three  years  and  after  serving  two  years 
re-enlisted  in  the  field  for  "  three  years  or  during  the  war,"  have  the  distinctive 
and  honorable  title  of  "veteran"  placed  after  their  names. 

Careful  enumeration  has  been  made  of  the  total  enrollment  of  each  regi 
ment,  together  with  the  list  of  casualties. 

The  work  of  compiling  these  individual  histories  has  been  long  and 
arduous,  but  it  has  been  one  of  gratification  and  satisfaction  to  record  the 
gallant  deeds  of  Michigan  men  who  contributed  so  gloriously  to  the  unity  and 
perpetuity  of  the  Union. 


Seventeenth  Infantry. 


The  Seventeenth  Michigan  Infantry  was  organized  at  Detroit  in  the 
spring  of  1862,  and  started  for  Washington,  D.  C,  August  27,  1862,  under 
command  of  Colonel  William  H.  Withington  of  Jackson,  with  an  enrollment 
of  982  officers  and  men,  and  upon  the  arrival  of  the  regiment  at  Wash 
ington  it  was  assigned  to  the  First  Brigade,  First  Division,  Ninth  Army 
Corps.  It  continued  to  form  a  part  of  this  celebrated  corps  during  its 
term  of  service. 

The  field,  staff  and  line  officers  at  organization  were  as  follows:

K.  Captain.  Wm.  W.  Thayer,  Battle  Creek.  First  Lieutenant,  James  E. 
Thomas,  Grass  Lake.  Second  Lieutenant.  Benjamin  B.  Baker,  Jackson. 

Perhaps  no  other  Michigan  regiment  had  such  a  serious  test  of  its 
patriotism,  courage  and  soldierly  qualities  so  soon  after  arriving  in  the 
field  as  the  Seventeenth.  Scarcely  two  weeks  from  the  time  it  left  the 
state  it  participated  in  one  of  the  severest  battles  of  the  war,  considering 
the  numbers  engaged. 

September  I4th  the  Seventeenth,  with  the  Ninth  Corps,  engaged  the 
enemy  at  South  Mountain,  Md.,  where  the  corps  attempted  to  cross  the 
mountain  through  Turner's  Gap  and  drive  the  confederates  from  the  sum 
mit,  where  they  had  taken  advantage  of  securing  their  position  behind 
stone  fences  and  other  obstructions,  and  from  commanding  points  had 
planted  their  artillery  to  sweep  the  narrow  roads  over  which  the  Union 
troops  must  pass. 


MICHIGAN  VOLUNTEERS,  1861-1865 


The  Seventeenth  had  been  so  recently  organized  and  was  so  inex 
perienced  in  actual  warfare  that  the  men  did  not  realize  the  desperate  task 
they  were  assigned  until  the  enemy's  shot  and  shell  were  crashing  through 
their  ranks. 

Almost  at  a  moment's  notice  the  regiment  was  plunged  into  the  horrible 
realities  of  a  pitched  battle.  On  the  crest  of  the  mountain,  behind  stone 
walls,  the  enemy  awaited  the  advance  of  the  Union  forces.  The  orders 
came  for  the  Seventeenth  to  charge,  when  with  wild  cheers  the  regiment 
rushed  through  a  storm  of  lead  and  drove  the  enemy  from  his  stone  de 
fences,  and  sent  him  retreating  down  the  slope  of  the  mountain. 

In  this  charge  the  Seventeenth  secured  the  title  of  the  "Stonewall 
Regiment,"  which  clung  to  it  as  an  honorable  distinction  during  the  war. 
The  regiment  carried  approximately  500  men  into  this  engagement  and 
lost  140  in  killed  and  wounded. 

The  battle  of  South  Mountain  was  fought  Sept.  14,  and  Sept.  17  the  regi 
ment  was  desperately  engaged  at  Antictam,  Md..  and  participated  in  the 
bloody  and  useless  charges  at  "  Burnside's  Bridge."  where  the  Union  troops 
were  massed  in  the  attempts  to  carry  the  bridge,  when  the  small  stream  of 
water  could  have  been  easily  forded  above  or  below  it.  Although  the  regi 
ment  succeeded  in  gaining  the  opposite  heights  occupied  by  the  enemy,  it 
was  at  a  fearful  cost  in  killed  and  wounded. 

The  Seventeenth  was  in  Virginia  and  Maryland  until  March.  1863,  when 
with  the  Ninth  Corps  it  was  transported  to  Louisville,  Ky.,  and  occupied  a 
number  of  places  in  the  state  of  Kentucky  by  continuous  marching,  until  it 
was  ordered  to  General  Grant,  then  at  Vicksburg,  Miss.  The  regiment  was 
engaged  with  the  enemy  at  Jackson,  Miss.,  but  soon  returned  to  Kentucky 
and  arrived  at  Crab  Orchard  Aug.  24. 

From  this  point  commenced  the  long  and  tedious  march  across  the 
Cumberland  Mountains  to  Knoxville,  Tenn.  After  occupying  a  number  of 
places  in  East  Tennessee,  where  the  regiment  suffered  the  hardship  and 
privations  for  want  of  clothing  and  rations  that  were  incident  to  that 
campaign,  it  returned  to  Knoxville  and  was  sent  to  Lenoir  Station  west  of 
Knoxville,  to  contest  the  advance  of  General  Longstreet's  troops,  then 
marching  upon  Knoxville. 

As  the  Union  troops  fell  back  slowly  upon  Knoxville,  the  Seventeenth 
acted  as  rear  guard  and  fought  a  severe  engagement  with  Longstreet's 
forces  at  Campbell  Station  Sept.  16.  During  the  night  and  the  next  day 
the  Union  troops  fell  back  to  Knoxville,  where  they  occupied  the  entrench 
ments  and  Fort  Saunders.  a  strong  earthwork,  thrown  up  to  resist  the 
attack  of  the  confederates.  Under  cover  of  darkness  the  Seventeenth  made 
a  brilliant  sortie  and  burned  a  house  between  the  lines  occupied  by  rebel 
sharpshooters,  but  the  light  of  the  burning  house  revealed  the  regiment 
to  the  foe,  who  opened  a  furious  cannonade,  which  caused  the  death  of 
Lieutenant  Billingsly. 

The  Seventeenth  occupied  Fort  Saunders  during  the  siege  and  helped 
to  repel  the  desperate  charges  of  the  enemy. 

After  General  Longstreet  marched  by  Knoxville  and  into  East  Tenne 
ssee,  the  Seventeenth  followed  him  and  occupied  a  number  of  positions, 
marching  continuously,  all  the  time  nearly  destitute  of  supplies,  having  to 
depend  for  the  scanty  rations  obtained  upon  the  country  through  which  the 
regiment  marched.  The  weather  was  cold,  with  frequent  sleet  and  snow 
storms,  and  the  men  of  the  Seventeenth,  with  their  comrades  of  the  cam 
paign,  endured  these  hardships  cheerfully,  though  at  times  confronted  by

starvation  or  chilled  with  cold,  their  threadbare  uniforms  offered  but  slight 
protection  against  the  rigors  of  such  a  climate. 

On  the  22d  of  March,  1864,  the  regiment  commenced  its  return  march 
across  the  Cumberland  Mountains  to  Nicholasville,  Ky.,  a  distance  of  nearly 
200  miles.  When  it  arrived  orders  were  received  for  it  to  proceed  to  Anna 
polis,  Md..  where  the  Ninth  Corps  proceeded  to  join  the  Army  of  the 
Potomac.  It  crossed  the  Rapidan  at  Germania  Ford,  and  on  the  6th  day  of 
May  was  engaged  in  the  desperate  battle  of  the  Wilderness.  The  regiment 
was  actively  engaged  in  this  campaign,  and  in  a  daring  charge  upon  the 
enemy's  works  on  the  I2th  of  May,  the  Seventeenth  was  surrounded  in 
dense  woods  by  the  heavy  lines  of  the  enemy  and  practically  annihilated  by 
the  loss  of  nearly  100  killed  and  wounded  and  the  same  number  taken 
prisoners. 

After  this  sanguinary  engagement  the  Seventeenth  practically  lost  its 
position  in  the  brigade  for  want  of  numbers  and  regimental  organization, 
and  the  few  who  survived  were  detailed  in  the  engineer  corps  and  at  head 
quarters.  These  survivors  served  with  the  army  in  the  positions  assigned 
them,  and  took  part  in  the  assault  before  Petersburg,  where  that  strong 
hold  fell  into  the  hands  of  the  Union  troops. 

After  General  Lee's  surrender,  the  Seventeenth  embarked  at  City  Point 
for  Alexandria,  Va.,  and  participated  in  the  grand  review  at  Washington  on 
the  23d  of  May. 

The  regiment  started  for  Michigan  by  rail  on  the  4th  of  June  and 
arrived  at  Detroit  June  7th,  1865,  where  it  was  paid  off  and  disbanded.
